It's completely the seller's responsibility. If he chose not to do tracking,
that's on him to accept the risk.

A few months ago, a placed an order from a highly rated Danish seller. The order
amounted to 434.69 DKK (roughly $62.82 USD), and was shipped February 20th. It's
been over three months and the order is nowhere to be seen (tracking was not
included on the order), and the seller and I both agree that the item was likely
lost or stolen. The seller sent photographic proof that he wrote my mailing address
correctly, so none of this is his fault.
We're considering a 50% refund as the fairest option, but I'm curious
about what you all think.
Thanks!

  Originally, I only purchased from US stores however, now I would like order worldwide.
Unfortunately, my purchase settings won't change after repeated attempts.

Which settings are you talking about?

1. Icon My BL »» Settings »» My Wanted List Settings
  »» https://www.bricklink.com/wantedSettings.asp?viewFrom=P
There’s a “Save Settings” button at the bottom of the options.

2. On the Buy Page (icon Want »» Buy), you have Store Filters (see pic).
  Those should be memorized, by preference cookies.
  So maybe check that you accept those cookies: https://www.bricklink.com/v3/cookies.page
But even if you don’t accept cookies you should be able to change them (and
you would have to, each time, because without preference cookies, they revert
to the defaults… but that doesn’t prevent you from changing them, just from keeping
them).

Or other settings I forgot about?

IOW, more info please

Was the shipping a priority service, for example, air, or was it sent by some
economical shipping service, for example, surface or economy air?

Definitely ensure both you and the seller check the shipping agencies responsible
for handling the parcel in both countries. Both you and the seller should also
check with the Customs agency in the respective country, perhaps it was delayed
there?

Sometimes packages show up late because they went to an unexpected destination.
You might still get your package, although as you state, there is a large possibility
it was lost or stolen.

The package should have had a Customs form, sometimes they can track it via that
number, if you or the seller have it. In some cases they use a declaration sticker
but if it's for goods nowadays, it needs to be a properly filled out Customs
form for the relevant country.

Cheers ...

legally the seller is fully responsible for the delivery and should refund fully
but if you are fine with 50% that 100% is up to you and the seller would likely
be happy

  Hello all. This may be my first post here.

In the listing information of a set, there are two sections at the bottom that
I don’t understand. What are “alternate parts” and “counter parts?”

Thanks,
- Rob

See https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1562

Alternate is for instance when some copies of the set contain a brick with solid
studs and other copies of the same set have been found with this brick with open
studs.

Counter parts is for instance a wheel and a tire listed each separate in a set,
with the combination of both in the counterpart section. Similarly for unstickered
parts + sticker sheets in the main section, and the stickered parts in the counter
parts section.

counterparts are for things like stickered parts or part assemblies like a
turntable where the base an top are connected. alternate items is for when 1
part is found in 2 different versions or moulds in a set it gets added to alternates
or if a set is redesigned during production but stays as the same set then then
new parts get added there

Which colour of chrome? There is chrome gold, silver, antique brass, black, blue,
green, and pink.

Chrome silver like an old bumper I want to use them as exhaust pipes

Is this the piece? https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=71075&colorID=22&in=A

Thanks for the help, yes I came across that one too but I'm thinking it might
be to long but if I order some and they don't work they just go into inventory
so win win. Thanks again.

If you go to the parts page for the piece that you are looking for an click the
"Color Info" tab, under the Known Color, you can click the color of the
part and it will show you all the available sets that it came in.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=4073#T=C

For 1x1 round plate, it only came in

Chrome Antique Brass
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=4073&colorID=57&in=A

Chrome Gold
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=4073&colorID=21&in=A

Chrome Silver
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=4073&colorID=22&in=A

Need help to confirm I have a complete set of part bags for this set. The instruction
manual shows 13 numbered bags but does not specific how many of the mini bags
with same number should be included.

I have main bags 1-13 and mini bags 4, 6 and 11.

Need to know if I am missing any.

Thanks in advance!
